6.5 Creedmoor load development

[kcnoel]

Hi everyone, This is my first post to this forum. I have a Model 110 Predator in 6.5 Creedmoor and I got out to the range today to do a Satterlee load test and this is what I got. I have a picture of the graph of the muzzle velocity and a picture of the target which shows an 18 shot group. As you can see, I have a sweet spot at the 41.6 - 41.9 grains spot. This is using H4350 and Hornady EDL X 143 gr pills. Next I'll load up 5 of each in this load range and see what groups the best. I think that 2760fps is a great velocity for this bullet. By the way, the target has all 18 shots into it at 100 yards! And the one that went to the right is because the shooter next to me AR was spitting out brass and hitting me in the head when I took that shot!
